Red Rose Forest is helping to transform a large part of Greater
Manchester into a greener, better place to live, work and invest in.
Red Rose Forest is creating new areas of woodland, helping to improve
existing green spaces and encouraging thousands of people every year to
visit their local park, woodland, nature reserve or community garden -
discovering the countryside that is right on their doorstep!
Red Rose Forest is also making a huge impact on the North West region,
increasing tree cover, encouraging investment and visitors to the area
and playing a vital role in making England's North West a greener, more
rewarding place to live, work, visit and do business.
Red Rose Forest is a partnership of The Countryside Agency, the
Forestry Commission and the Metropolitan Boroughs of Bolton, Bury,
Trafford and Wigan and the Cities of Manchester and Salford.
A wider partnership is actively involved in developing the Forest in
many different ways across the Forest area. This partnership includes
landowners, businesses, Government agencies, environmental and
voluntary bodies, Countryside Services, communities, schools and many
individuals.
